Xia Lingge and Xu Jiajia walked downstairs and sat in the most conspicuous position and stared outside. The gray sky was so depressing and low, and the few decaying small buildings not far away were twisted and mutilated like evil ghosts. The road was lifeless, with only a few shriveled cans or paper balls floating in the wind occasionally.

Xu Jiajia hugged her shoulders and frowned as she looked at the street.

Xia Lingge was not as eager as she was. She took out a bag of fried shrimp crackers that Sicheng had given her from her backpack, tore open the package and put one in her mouth to eat.

"You're pretty laid back."

Xu Jiajia listened to her subtle chewing sound and said: "The person who followed you has been away for so long and hasn't come back. How can you still eat snacks?"

Xia Lingge swallowed the shrimp crackers in her mouth and blinked innocently: "What else? Do I need to go to the men's room to look for him?"

Xu Jiajia choked and turned back silently.

Xia Lingge clapped her hands after finishing a pack of shrimp crackers, but Xu Jiajia was right. It took so long to go to the toilet, and he should have crawled out after falling into the toilet.

She stood up, took a flashlight, and walked back up the stairs to the third floor. Except for the zombies everywhere, there was no sign of Sicheng on the third floor, and there was no toilet at all.

She fixed her sights on the fourth floor.

Holding a flashlight, she came to the fourth floor. Surprisingly, the safe passage on the fourth floor was not locked. She opened the door easily. The fourth floor was like a dining area, with rows of neatly divided small shops. Signature food - spicy hot pot, cross-bridge rice noodles, sizzling squid, fragrant skewers, Korean bibimbap and Japanese sushi.

But there was no one inside, and the rickety utensils were covered with dust and coagulated blood. She walked all the way and found no zombies, nor their corpses. Could it be that Sicheng was not here too?
She was hesitating when she suddenly heard a "dang-dang-dang" sound not far away, like a kitchen knife chopping meat on a chopping board.Xia Lingge hesitated. Have any zombies evolved to this extent?
She followed the sound and found it in the kitchen of a Malatang restaurant. She groped for the door of the kitchen, and there was only a crack in the wooden door. Xia Lingge slowly looked inside through the crack. It was pitch black, but there was a bunch of A bright light shines straight.

There was a man with his back to her. Xia Lingge couldn't tell whether he was a human or a zombie. She could only see that he was chopping something accurately and quickly with a kitchen knife in his hand.

Xia Lingge took out the flashlight and dimmed the light. As soon as it shined through the crack in the door, he found many zombies lying on the floor of the kitchen.

Well, it's zombies.

Those zombies were obviously divided into two wheels, one for the body and the other for the head. The part of the body was wrapped with a rope, like a hairy crab just fished out of the sea, and the head was skeletal with big eyes. .

Such an impactful scene made Xia Lingge want to know which elder brother's masterpiece it was. She unconsciously cast her eyes on the back of the man. He took out something after chopping, and then threw it away with a slight click of his tongue as if he was dissatisfied. On the side, that thing rolled to the ground. It was a zombie head with a gaping hole between its brows.

She understood that the man was digging for crystals.

An idea flashed through his mind. Xia Lingge did not shine the flashlight on the man to prove his suspicion, but quietly retracted his hand.

"I found it."

A familiar voice rose quietly in the thick darkness, Xia Lingge retracted her sight and left quietly.

When she reached the third floor, a voice suddenly sounded behind her. Xia Lingge turned back and saw Sicheng slowly walking down from the top of the floor.

"Sister?"

He was surprised to see her: "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to find you." Xia Lingge replied, "I thought you were in some kind of trouble since you haven't been back for so long. I didn't see you on the third floor, so I just wanted to take a look at the fourth floor."

Si Cheng walked up to her and said, "There is no bathroom on the third floor. I did go up to the fourth floor." Then, as if he remembered something, he held out the thing he was holding in front of Xia Lingge's eyes like a treasure, "Senior sister, look, What did I find?"

His voice revealed a certain excitement and joy, like a child who gets a new toy and is eager to share it with his friends.

Xia Lingge looked over, and saw a crystal emitting green light quietly placed in the palm of his hand.

"You try?" Sicheng's tone was full of expectation.

Xia Lingge didn't hesitate. The green crystal in his palm shrank slightly, but it also shattered like the purple crystal.

"How could this happen...?" Si Cheng murmured in disbelief.

"Maybe it's not suitable." Xia Lingge shook his hands and shook off the residue left in his palm. "But it's okay. We know that in the apocalypse, besides purple, there are crystals of other colors, which shows that the purpose of color contrast is different. Maybe neither color suits me, but...how did you find the green crystal?"

Her voice was light and no emotion could be heard.

The flashlight they were holding also moved to the side, hiding their expressions into the darkness.

"I accidentally saw a zombie that was a little different." Si Cheng's tone was also light, but Xia Lingge could hear the profound meaning.

"He can speak." He continued, "Although he can't speak clearly like normal humans, he is somewhat evolved compared to other zombies."

"It's very special..."

So you arrested a whole house?

Xia Lingge believed that Si Cheng might have encountered a talking zombie, but she didn't think it was an accidental encounter. She preferred that Si Cheng encountered the newly evolved zombie in the process of killing zombies and then killed it.

"But unfortunately..."

There was uncontrollable regret in Si Cheng's voice: "It's not a zombie that can help senior sister."

"What about you?" Xia Lingge suddenly asked.

Si Cheng was stunned: "What?"

Xia Lingge said: "Then have you ever tried whether you are suitable for this green crystal?"

Si Cheng suddenly smiled after hearing this: "Senior sister is important."

He said it sincerely, but Xia Lingge didn't know if Si Cheng had changed like this. In the past, she had to hide in nooks and crannies when entering the dungeon, but now she can assassinate zombies behind her back, and she can lie without changing her face. .

Games can transform people, right?
"Sister?"

Seeing that Xia Lingge didn't speak for a long time, Si Cheng felt a little nervous unconsciously: "Is there any problem?"

He was clean when he left, so there shouldn't be any odor left on his body to make the senior sister unhappy, right?

He sniffed his sleeve hesitantly.

"It's nothing."

Xia Lingge looked away: "I just thought that it is quite dangerous to deal with zombies alone. Even if you know the weaknesses, you should not provoke them casually. After all, the number of zombies is huge, and we are not very familiar with the apocalyptic world. We should be careful next time."

"it is good."

Sicheng responded without hesitation: "I listen to my senior sister." (End of Chapter)
